Roman Augustoviz beat writer for the Star Trib (Formerly Goal Gophers) has a blog post that talks about the possible impending doom facing the WCHA/CCHA, there has been about a 100 of them as of late... Looking at this blog post does anyone see anything that sticks out or makes them scratch their head?
When the Big Ten Conference announced it was going to form its own hockey league last March, rumblings started about what the aftershocks might be.
The BTC will start play in 2013-14, with the Gophers and Wisconsin leaving the WCHA and Michigan, Michigan State and Ohio State leaving the CCHA to join newcomer Penn State in a six-team league.
At the time, WCHA commission Bruce McLeod said his 10-team league would be fine if everybody stuck together. He is probably looking for some super glue right about now.
North Dakota, UMD and Nebraska Omaha are all hinting they are looking for what is best for them. Notre Dame and Miami (Ohio) of the CCHA also could be looking for a stronger league to be part of when the Big Ten Conference starts up.
Those five schools, plus maybe Denver and Colorado College of the WCHA, and maybe Western Michigan of the CCHA, are the teams most often mentioned for a new "super conference".
This could be a summer of big changes in college hockey if it happens.
Doh! Or is it Duh?!? Wow!!! Looking at some of the puzzling comments that have come out of Bruce McLeod’s mouth as of late; make me want to scratch my head and wonder what the hell is going on in this guy’s mind right now? I have to ask other college hockey fans if McLeod’s comments as of late give you a any reason to believe that maybe the is the wrong person to be sitting in the WCHA Commissioner’s chair? I do! It's time to strike while the iron it hot and get rid of this clown.
